Chapter Thirty: Lie Cloud (2)
"Xin'er, what are you thinking?" Wei Lin'er pushed open the hatch door and asked Xin'er, who was standing on the deck secretly lost her mind.
Xin'er turned around and saw her sister who grew up. She was both a master and servant and a sister, and she basically talked about everything.
Wei Lin'er was a few months older than Xin'er, so when Xin'er saw Wei Lin'er, her eyebrows stretched out and said, "Sister Lin'er, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"
Wei Lin'er pulled Xin'er to find a clean place and sat down and said, "Don't Xin'er sleep, right?"
"Xin'er is a little bored. If you can't sleep, you will come out for a walk." Xin'er's face clearly stated with loss.
"Is there anything I can tell you about Sister Lin'er?" Wei Lin'er asked curiously.
Xin'er widened her eyes and asked seriously: "Sister Lin'er, do you feel happy when you marry your son-in-law?"
"Happiness?" Wei Lin'er muttered, carefully recalling the little things she had with Changfeng, and said: "I feel very relaxed with him, and I feel very happy. I feel that everything I do is full of motivation. I wonder if this is happiness?"
Xin'er listened carefully to Wei Lin'er's thoughts. The person who said the same mood, and the person who listened to the same mood. Wei Lin'er smiled when she spoke, but Xin'er was a little dazed.
It took a long time for Xiner to understand the meaning of Wei Liner's words and said: "It turns out that happiness looks like this. I wonder if Xiner will have such happiness in the future?"
Wei Lin'er smiled and said, "Silly girl, you will know when you meet someone you like."
"Will Xin'er meet someone as good as her son-in-law?" Xin'er asked nervously.
Wei Lin'er choked and said, "Of course, it's true, but my sister still hopes you don't meet him. Although he is very good, he is too fickle and not suitable for you."
"Sister Lin'er, why can you tolerate your son-in-law's fickleness and Fengliu?" Xiner asked loudly.
Wei Lin'er was also stopped for a moment. Yes, how could she tolerate that he had so many confidantes? She seemed to have never thought about this question. If Xin'er hadn't been quick to talk tonight, she wouldn't have thought of this question? Naturally, she could not answer Xin'er's question. Instead, she pretended to be angry and had a fight for a while and went back to her room to rest.
Lin'er was a little weird tonight. She hid in the dark cabin and used the hidden technique of secret sects. Why did she warn herself that she could like other women, but now she could not be moved by her sisters. But these are not important, because he had never been moved by Wei Lin'er's sisters, so it doesn't matter to him whether he had this warning or not. He fell asleep as he thought about it.
In fact, Lin'er also has difficulties with Lin'er. The eighteen sisters all practiced a magical art of secret treason. Otherwise, how could she gain such a powerful reputation in such a short time? Practicing this magical art requires a certain level to be able to break the body, otherwise it may be possible to destroy people. Wei Lin'er practiced qigong in the past year and successfully broke through that level in order to seek revenge on Changfeng. She knew that several of her sisters were interested in Changfeng. She was not easy to interfere in this kind of personal emotional matter, especially her own sisters. She could only stop this idea in Changfeng, so she warned Changfeng not to have any thoughts on her sisters.
However, even without Wei Lin'er's warning, Changfeng would not provoke her sisters. Now he can't handle it. How could he have that thought? Besides, Changfeng is actually a bit "fictional", but he is not Fengliu and will not show mercy everywhere, especially the people around him. He is even more wary. Whenever he sees the young women around him, he treats them with courtesy and looks at them directly. Over time, his heart becomes weaker, and everyone knows Changfeng's thoughts, and Wei Lin'er is also overwhelmed.
At noon the next day, Changfeng and others were warmly welcomed by Hu Yunyan and Xue Ganhua at the dock in Lieyun Town. Changfeng first introduced himself, because the couple only knew Changfeng, the old master, and then introduced everyone on the boat. However, Wei Lin'er and the four sisters could only say that they could not be revealed on the surface. After all, people's hearts were separated from the belly. If they knew that one of the three killer organizations was incorporated into the river, Changfeng would be in trouble again, and the importance of hidden power, Changfeng, how could Changfeng, the commander who once commanded the army and fought, could he not know?
Hu Yunyan and his wife had a lot of questions. Lin'er knew that she was just a top singer on one of Cheng Xiuyun's pleasure boats. In theory, she was a man in the river. Although she had some questions, she could only put it in her stomach first. There are too many rumors about Changfeng in the world, and they could not be sure what the relationship between this Lin'er girl and Changfeng was.
After a few words, Changfeng soon became familiar with the couple. Sister Hu and Brother Xue called out intimately. People in the Jianghu are people in the Jianghu. They have common topics and common languages, so they are naturally extremely happy to chat.
Changfeng's youth was beyond their expectations, and Changfeng's maturity and stability showed made Hu Yunyan and his wife respect him very much, and did not despise him because Changfeng was too young.
In the past, they were thieves, but now they were soldiers. It was impossible to live in the old village in the deep mountains. Now they built a large house at the foot of Lieyun Mountain. The name of the village is Lieyun Village. However, everyone is used to calling it Lieyun Village, and there are many village residents living in the village in Lieyun Mountain. This is why people who are used to being thieves feel a little uneasy. If the court changes its mind that day, they can return to the mountain at any time and the court can't do anything to them.
Hu Yunyan, Xue Ganhua and his wife welcomed Changfeng and others into Lieyun Village. The feeling that Lieyun Village gave everyone was simple. There were basically no tall buildings in the village. They were all blue bricks and small tiles, which looked very comfortable. The courtyard was cleaned very clean. It can be seen that this loving couple did not advocate luxury, which made Changfeng feel ashamed: "Sister Hu, Brother Xue is really good here, clean and refreshing. It can be seen that both of them are people with temperament."
Although Changfeng is much younger than the couple, his current status is different. Hu Yunyan and his wife respect Changfeng very much and said, "If the military advisor likes it, why not wait until the Nangong family is done and circumvent the village for a few more days?"
Changfeng happily agreed to their invitation and said, "That's great. Changfeng is making such a wish, but I'm afraid it won't be that simple to go to the Nangong family. What's the plan for the Xian couple?"
Xue Ganhua thought for a while and said, "Since the Nangong family invited the entire river, if we don't go, we will be afraid of trouble. If we go, we can't say anything. The river is driven by more people, and there is no advantage in martial arts. It may be useless to go."
Changfeng thought carefully about Xue Ganhua's words, and there was still some truth. The river channel relies on the talent of many people to have a certain status in the martial arts world. In fact, those famous sects do not look down on the power of the river at all. They think that the river channel is just a group of robbers who rely on their strength to fight for family robbers. Now they are covered with the cloak of the official family and don't do this anymore, especially the contempt of some sects. People in the martial arts world have never liked to be controlled, especially those who are called by secular rulers. Although the river channel is powerful, it cannot get the right status in the martial arts world. This time the river channel can be invited by the Nangong family, and it is already a great honor with the famous sects, so even if you can't control anything, people still have to go there.
Qin Qiong saw it more thoroughly than Xue Ganhua and said, "Brother Xue is a little discouraged. Now that our river channel has joined the military advisor, the situation is very different."
Xue Ganhua suddenly realized: "Yes, Brother Qin reminded me, the military advisor's martial arts can be said to be unrivaled in the river. This is an opportunity for our river to be justified."
Changfeng blushed and humbled, then said, "I don't know what medicine is sold in the gourd this time, but it is definitely not a good medicine. The Xian couple is close to each other, but what news is there about the Nangong family?"
Hu Yunyan has always been managed by the counterfeit village. Everyone, including Xue Ganhua, surrendered to Hu Yunyan. Hu Yunyan lowered her head and thought for a while: "Although Lieyun Village has some contact with the Nangong Family, it is only business. Moreover, the Nangong Family has a huge influence in Wanjin City, and it is difficult for ordinary gangs or forces to get in. We have only met Nangong Feihong once. As for the situation in the Nangong Family, we don't know at all."
Everyone sighed with regret, and Changfeng asked, "How does the Xian couple feel about Nangong Feihong?"
Hu Yunyan recalled: "Nangong Feihong is in his forties, with a thin appearance, extraordinary temperament, strong speech, and unfathomable martial arts."
It was similar to what Changfeng knew, and there was nothing special about it. Changfeng had already begun to look forward to meeting the head of the Nangong family for a while.
Xue Ganhua took everyone to visit the village and the mountain village, while Hu Yunyan was busy preparing for the evening reception banquet.
Changfeng loves Lieyunzhuang because of its quietness and simplicity. Every grass and tree here grows very naturally, and there are basically no traces of artificial axes. Hu Yunyan and Xue Ganhua are a pair of elegant men. Although they are not lacking in scheming, they are also trustworthy people and worthy of their exchange.
When we were at night, Wei Lin'er was staying with Changfeng like a bird. Hu Yunyan and his wife naturally understood the relationship between them immediately. No wonder how could she, a singer, come out with Changfeng? She must be the confidante of the military advisor. However, another question arose in their minds, what is the relationship between Cao Ruifeng and Changfeng? Will it really be as rumored that the military advisor is Cao Ruifeng's fiancé. Although Cao Ruifeng admitted that she had a fiancé, she never publicly stated who the fiancé was, so it is normal for them to have this suspicion.
In fact, Changfeng is so unwilling to say that Cao Ruifeng is her fiancée to the world, but he also has to respect Cao Ruifeng’s own opinions. If she doesn’t say it out now, she will naturally have her plans. Anyway, whether it is against the world, Cao Ruifeng is Changfeng’s wife, and he still thinks he is not famous enough!
Lieyun Village has never been as lively as tonight. Even the wedding banquet where Hu Yunyan and Xue Ganhua got married was not necessarily so lively. Xue Ganhua frequently toasted Changfeng and others, but the master of Xue Dazhai was not very good. After only one round, he became a little drunk. Hu Yunyan felt sorry for her husband, for fear that he would hurt her body, so she stood up to toast everyone on behalf of her husband.
Everyone has important things tomorrow. The wine is brewed by Lieyunzhuang itself. It is sweet and refreshing. Of course, it is good wine. Only good wine can bring good interest. However, Hu Yunyan is a woman. Everyone admires the rare heroic spirit of the woman in Hu Yunyan, so no one is too embarrassed to toast the hostess. It's almost done after one round, and then they drink it themselves, and the atmosphere is very warm.
Wei Lin'er just drank a few drinks, and her face turned red and she felt a little dizzy, so she left the table early to rest.
The humorous and humorous expression of Changfeng during the meal made Hu Yunyan and his wife feel that Changfeng is also a person with true temperament, so they talk more than drink and eat.
I didn't drink enough wine, but Niu Gao, who was talking nonsense, took the opportunity to blackmail. As a result, half of the adult wine in the wine cellar of Lieyun Villa was moved away by Niu Gao's brothers, filling up the empty cabin and drinking jars.
Changfeng accompanied Hu Yunyan and his wife for Niu Gao. Next, Changfeng punished Niu Gao for a month to ban wine, warning him of the guilt of rudeness at the table, so that he could not drink it when he saw the wine. When Niu Gao heard it, his face turned green. Luo Wenhao hurriedly pleaded for him, and his elder brother still had to give him the affection, so he lost ten days, and a month turned into twenty days. Even if Luo Wenhao had the heart, he could no longer plead for him. Changfeng's additional condition made him immediately put away his intention to plead again. This condition was that the ban was taken by Luo Wenhao to guard Niu Gao.
After the dinner, after arranging guests to the villa's guest room to rest, Hu Yunyan quietly invited Changfeng and Qin Qiong to the villa's secret room. There were a lot of people at the dinner just now, so some things were difficult to say and some questions were difficult to ask, so we had to find a secret place to ask carefully.
The three of them sat down, and Hu Yunyan said first: "Military advisor, Brother Qin, Yunyan came to you late at night to find you to solve the questions in her heart."
Changfeng said: "Sister Hu, what Changfeng knows must be answered."
Qin Qiong smiled and said, "If you are the eldest sister, I will definitely obey your order."
"Military advisor, what do you think of the upcoming alliance in the river channel?" Changfeng was stunned. Why did he ask this question at once? Changfeng looked at Qin Qiong intentionally. Fortunately, he reminded him at the latest in time. Hu Yunyan took Changfeng's expression in his eyes. He thought there was a tacit understanding between Changfeng and Qin Qiong, so he naturally wanted to know even more, staring at Changfeng's lips.
Changfeng sat on the deck last night and thought about this question in the middle of the night. With some of the ideas Cao Ruifeng had mentioned to him before, he had some experience, but he still said vaguely: "The unification of the river channel is an unstoppable trend. The key now is how to unify the river channel. In the past, it was just a loose alliance. Although it was unified, it still acted independently, each had its own territory, and each had its own business. I haven't had time to communicate with her about Ruifeng's meaning, so I don't know now, I don't know what you two think?"
Hu Yunyan asked, "I don't know what this true unity means. Can the military advisor explain it to Yunyan?" He thought of knowing the answer in his eyes, and Qin Qiong also pricked up his ears and waited carefully.
Changfeng glanced at the two of them and hesitated for a moment. It would be better to explore the words of the two of them first. Anyway, Cao Ruifeng also wanted to propose it in the alliance, so he said: "That is, all the business, dock, and people are concentrated and distributed, allocated, and operated in a unified manner."
After hearing this, Qin Qiong looked very calm, but asked with some concern: "Will this deprive the foundation of each leader of the village? I'm afraid it won't work."
Seeing that they did not object at once, Changfeng was not surprised at all, and knew that they might have guessed it long ago, and slowly explained: "No, the river of personal property will not touch everyone at all. They just concentrate the public property and operate it in a unified manner, and then secretly share the profits in the original proportion of everyone, so the impact on the heads of the village leaders is not very big."
Hu Yunyan was still acceptable to this approach, and even said that some places were coincidental. She nodded and asked, "Is this the military advisor's meaning, or the chief camp leader?"
Cao Ruifeng only mentioned how the river channel is unified to Changfeng. Changfeng thought that this was her own business, so she could only come up with an idea, running errands, and it was a bit unsuitable to directly participate. So most of what she said just now was Cao Ruifeng's meaning, and a small part mixed with some of her own opinions, so she said: "It's Ruifeng's meaning, but she added some Changfeng's opinions."
From Changfeng's name to Cao Ruifeng, Hu Yunyan naturally heard that Changfeng's meaning was probably Cao Ruifeng's own meaning, so she asked: "Does the military advisor think that the unification of the river channel will be beneficial to us?"
Changfeng clarified his clues and said, "The entire river has become one, our overall strength has been strengthened, and we are more powerful in protecting ourselves. No matter the court's attitude towards us in the future, he dares not move us easily. Moreover, the river cannot be separated from ships. Changfeng has built a large shipyard on Xindao, and the court has approved it. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we completely control the water transportation of the Crescent River, our income will not be like this now. The heads of the village will not have to worry about their livelihoods all day long. In short, Changfeng cannot explain the benefits for a while. The unification of the river will only have no harm to everyone."
Hu Yunyan admitted that what Changfeng said was true, but there was a trace of uneasiness in her heart. I don’t know why. However, Qin Qiong’s question hit her uneasy and asked: “Will the court want to see a unified river channel? Although the river channel is nothing to the entire Dugu Dynasty, if there are tens of thousands of people in total, isn’t the court afraid that we have evil intentions? In particular, the river channel is an existence independent of the court system, and the court may not sit idly by and watch the river channel be truly unified.”
Qin Qiong said the truth, but Changfeng had already thought about it and said, "Brother Qin's concern is good, but the unification of the river channel is still in the imagination. Whether it can be successful is still unknown. You two also know that the small forces on the river channel are mostly a big fur. If you want to be completely unified, it is still an ideal. The heads of the villages may not agree to this unification plan. To truly unify the river channel, it cannot be solved by one or two alliances. If the court wants to interfere, he can only divide some of them first. We can slowly combine the other part first!"
Both of them nodded, deeply admired Changfeng's long-term consideration.
"Then when you go to the Nangong family, everyone in the river will meet. What will the military advisor plan to do?" Hu Yunyan asked.
Changfeng observed his words and expressions, and it seemed that the two families were not disgusted with the unification of the river. Changfeng said with peace of mind: "Talk the words of other village leaders. This is the hero banquet of the Nangong family, not the alliance banquet of the river. There is no conflict, just adapt to the situation."
"It's good that this is the case. If the river channel is really unified, Yun Yan can take off the burden on her body." Hu Yunyan sighed, expressing her approval of the river channel unity.
Qin Qiong followed and said, "So, Sister Hu has time to spend more time with Brother Xue. It seems that you have been married for so many years, so it's long time to be a kid."
Hu Yunyan blushed and asked, "You are not young anymore, so it's time to find someone to avoid no one caring about you and talking casually. Why don't my elder sister introduce you to one?"
Qin Qiong said indifferently: "Sister, just spare me. I am in my prime and want to go out for a few more years!"
He is so thick-skinned. How old is he? He is still in his prime? Hu Yunyan laughed and scolded: "Be careful no one wants it!"
Qin Qiong said to Changfeng: "Military advisor, come and judge me, Qin Qiong, is I, the kind of man who no one wants?"
Why did he get involved with him as he said that? Changfeng smiled and said, "No, Brother Qin is so beautiful. I wonder how many young girls want to marry Brother Qin as their wife!"
Changfeng's words greatly satisfy Qin Qiong's man's vanity. In addition to the secret room, Qin Qiong pulled Changfeng and asked in a low voice: "Brother, are you right?"
Changfeng looked at Qin Qiong with a funny look and said, "Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, go and ask Brother Luo and the others!"
Chapter completed!
